How to maintain grafted crab claw orchid in Xian Ye in summer (maintenance management method of grafted crab claw orchid)

The first thing to pay attention to is the light. Crab claw orchids can't be exposed to strong light. Exposure is easy to dry stems, so they need proper shade in summer. Secondly, only a small amount of fertilizer is needed when applying fertilizer, and in addition, it is hot in summer, and too much fertilization is easy to produce fertilizer damage. Then you can water it properly, but not too much.

Grafting hawthorn with Xian Ye as rootstock can enhance the adaptability of hawthorn, which is more heat-resistant and drought-resistant, and it is easier to cross the summer.

But after all, it is a grafted plant, and summer management needs to take into account the growth habits of both plants. There are still many places to pay attention to. Let me talk about how to maintain the grafted crab claw orchid in summer in Xian Ye.

1, pay attention to shade in summer

We know that crab claw orchid is not resistant to high temperature. When the temperature exceeds 30 degrees in summer, the growth rate will slow down and it will be dormant.

But Xian Ye is not afraid of heat, and it will continue to grow even if it doesn't sleep at about 35 degrees in summer. Now, through grafting, the natural conservation is mainly based on rootstocks.

However, we should also consider the feelings of the crab claw orchid. High temperature is not a problem. What needs attention is the problem of light. Crab claw orchids can't be exposed to strong light, and exposure is easy to dry stems, so it needs proper shading in summer.

Maintenance suggestion

(1) Crab claw orchid grafted in Xian Ye should not be exposed to the sun in summer. Outdoor maintenance needs to be moved to a ventilated and cool place indoors, or covered with a sunshade net to avoid sunburn.

(2) Crab claw orchids entering the room are not recommended to be placed in a place with too dark light, which is not conducive to photosynthesis and will affect growth.

In order to cool the potted plants, many flower friends will spend the summer in air-conditioned rooms, which is unnecessary. People can't stand staying in air-conditioned rooms for a long time, and they are plants.

2, a small amount of fertilization in summer

Crab claw orchids hibernate in summer, but not in Xian Ye. Rootstocks can also provide a steady stream of nutrients for crab claw orchids in summer.

However, the growth habit of crab claw orchid will not change for a while, and its stem is not very long in summer, so it doesn't need much nutrition.

When fertilizing, only a small amount of fertilizer is needed. In addition, the weather is hot in summer, and excessive fertilization is easy to cause fertilizer damage.

Suggestion:

① The principle of overall fertilization is to give priority to thin fertilizer. In early summer, when the weather is not too hot, the growth speed of the crab claw orchid is also fast, and thin fertilizer can be applied every 7- 10 days. After midsummer, a small amount of fertilizer can be applied to maintain the growth of rootstocks, and fertilization can be applied once every 15-20 days.

② Fertilization in summer is easy to cause fertilizer damage. In addition to paying attention to the concentration, we should also pay attention to the use of organic fertilizer, which must be fully decomposed. The decomposed organic fertilizer will decompose faster and release more heat in hot weather in summer, which is easy to burn the roots.

③ Fertilization in summer ensures the balance of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can improve the stress resistance of plants and increase their resistance.

It is more suitable to water in summer.

It is hot in summer, and the demand for water is slightly larger. You can water it more appropriately, but not too much.

Xian Ye is a cactus plant with certain drought tolerance. Too much watering can easily lead to water accumulation and root rot.

Especially in summer, the weather is hot and indoor maintenance and ventilation are not good. Hot and sultry weather can easily lead to poor root respiration, so watering in summer is also very important.

Suggestion:

(1) Watering in summer is the same as usual, except that it is dry and wet, but it is hot in summer, and the interval between watering may be shorter.

② Indoor and outdoor environments are different. When watering indoors, wait 1-2 days before watering. Because indoor ventilation is not good, it is easy to accumulate water, so pay special attention.

(3) When the weather is hot, you can spray some water on the stem nodes of the crab claw orchid, but be careful not to spray it on the grafted joints, which will easily cause the grafting points to rot.

4. Pay attention to drainage and shelter from rain in summer

In summer, besides the hot weather, there is also much rain.

In the rainy season in summer, outdoor maintenance of crab claw orchids should be sheltered from rain and drained in time. On the one hand, the grafting point of the grafted crab claw orchid does not heal well, and it is afraid of getting wet. Dampness will affect healing and even lead to wound decay.

In addition, the rhizome of Xian Ye is not waterlogged, and it is not suitable for drainage in rainy weather for a long time. Long-term water accumulation in basin soil may lead to water accumulation and root rot.

Maintenance suggestion

(1) If it is a newly grafted crab claw orchid, it is better to shelter from the rain in summer and keep the grafting point dry, which is more conducive to wound healing. Crab claw orchids with long grafting time can get wet properly. It's okay to get wet in the rain. If it's too heavy, you need to take shelter from the rain.

② There is more rain in summer, so attention should be paid to the drainage of basin soil. For crab claw orchids maintained outdoors, two bricks can be placed under the flowerpot, which is more conducive to water leaching.

abstract

In Xian Ye, in summer, rootstocks and leaves are the main management methods for grafted crab claw orchids, and the growth habits of crab claw orchids should also be considered. Summer management is the above four points. Avoid the sun in hot weather, apply a small amount of fertilizer, water properly, pay attention to drainage and avoid rain.
